Spartanburg Methodist College is pleased to welcome the Greenville Brass Quintet to their Gibbs Auditorium stage to perform on Monday, October 7th at 7 p.m.

The Greenville Brass Quintet was created to advance the art and promote the appreciation of quality brass chamber music throughout South Carolina and the Southeast.

The quintet consists of the principal brass players of the Greenville Symphony Orchestra, Joe Hughes, trombonist, Phil Elkins and Jens Larsen on trumpets, Anneka Zuehlke-King on French horn and Don Strand on tuba.
